THIS PAPE3 REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGM ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES ABSORPTION. That history repeats itself is 'plain- ly evidenced in the recent election, where the fate of the progressive movement was clearly foreshadowed.' Like all similar eruptions of sporadic nature, it had no staying qualities. Xt •was \a house built upon the sands arid the • floods came and^ washed it away.\ \^\s While some success marked its ca- reer in the state, notably the election of Louis Will as mayor of Syracuse, there was no other except that of at- tachment. In some sections the pro- gressives attached themselves to the Democrats, in others like Lewis coun- ty, to the Republicans. In but few instances did the party stand on its own bottom, and in this, oscillation lies its doom as a party. Whatever success it may have in the future, will be restrictive ana pureiy local. Its name may exist for a time and the bull moose emblem appear on the bal- lot the same as the Independence League, but never again will it be on the crest of the wave. As a political factor its force has been spent and it will be absorbed by both the old par- ties. No one-man party can be run for any length of time in this country. Many have tried it. Hearst tried it, and later the Colonel. One was a multi-millionaire who had money to burn; the other was backed by multi- millionaires who had as much for red fire. In each case the primary object was the aggrandizement of the indi- vidual, and in each the campaign thunder was reform. The cases are exactly parallel, and the end follows the same grooves. Reform is a handy word—very effective too, as there is much to reform. It catches on, be- cause when men are shouting about reforming oth : rs, they become blind- _ e.d to their jSwn state. ' •'Tfj refjjprm themselves never oc- r e'urs fi> them; that, however, is where \to begin, and when such are once thoroughly reformed, their warnings might be heeded. All of the reform- ers we know in our own community need reforming as much as ourselves, ^and some more. However, that's the .place to begin, right at home; then when we hang out signals of distress •passing ships might notice. No man ever accomplished anything of benefit to the world unless he came with a message. Napoleon, the world's greatest democrat, came with one; Washington, the liberator, had a message; so did Lincoln the emanci- pator. These were instruments in the hands of a mighty power, men of destiny who fitted into certain con- ditions and through whom the world moved forward. One was exiled, the other defamed in his day, and the last assassinated; but their message lives, and their deeds are eDshrined in the hearts of men. Did the Independence League come with a message? No, their battle cry was \Down with the machine,\ but first put the man who paid for the shouting into office. No other man would do. ,Did the Progressives come with a message? No, their goods were same, with this add'tion, they \stood at Armageddon to battle for the Lord.\ High ground, that, but evidently not appreciated at the throne of grace, as the man who or- dained himself to lead these moral hosts, did nothing more than split his party in halves, which the laws of af- finity are uniting today, with a cleav- age more adhesive than when cut. What did he do? Much, in one way. He put in a man and statesman, Wil- son, as president, and so far as we know, the country is entirely satis- fied. There may be some outcroppings here and there, and some bluster, but the. die is cast and both of these crea- tions of the press agent will ultimate- ly pass into political oblivion and their followers be absorbed. Glynn's Revolution. Most preachers of economy in the expenditure of the taxpayers' mpney round out their preachment with a detailed statement of new appropria- tions essential to the success of their plans. Governor Glynn says we should be saving of our money, and straight- way announces that he will live offi- cially next year on half of 'what his predecessor found necessary, is he not a revolutionist, a rank iconoclast, a rash perverter of traditions? Why did he not follow the ancient and honored example of his predeces- sors? He might have appointed a commission of three $10,000 investi- gators to find a $1,200 clerk who was doing only .$800 worth of work; he might have pointed out the impera- tive need of his own establishment for more money, while exhibiting the gross extravagance of the legislature; he might, have bellowed for little sav- ings, while approving large wastes; and he has done none of these things. Instead, Mr. Glynn, fortified by his determination to be governor and not a mere candidate for election to some office, has made economy begin at home. His practice follows close on his precept. His act squares his words. How disturbing to those who re- gard his pledges of retrenchment as mere embroideries of policy must be this practical demonstration' of .the Glynn belief that dollars should be saved in the treasury as well as on the stump!—New York Sun. LYONSFALLS It is noted that many of the papers that criticised President Wilson for breaking a.precedent by reading his own communications to congress quite like a human being, are now congratulating him for \persisting in •one admirable reform.\ Instead of be- .ing failed at as attempting to \make speeches from the throne,\ it is now declared, by them that \Mr. Wilson's judgment was sound when he decided to return to the method of Washing- ton and John Adams.—TJtlca Ob- server. The p6st office department again finds it necessary to ask rural carriers to inform their .patrons that it is the desire of the department that all let- ters deposied in boxes for collection should bear stamps. Patrons should purchase stamps in advance for this purpose. When no stamps are at hind, coins must not be placed loose in the boxes nor in envelopes nor \wrapped in paper, but should be 'placed in some sort of coin holding re- ceptacle. The Rural Community. The question of how to keep the boys on the farm has been discussed for several years, and the discussion continues. Gov. Oox, of Ohio, recent- ly discoursed on this theme before the Farmers' National Congress. His argument, -like'that of many another, is that farm life should be made more attractive, that it should be deprived of its loneliness and isolation and more social opportunities provided. The rural free delivery and the tele- phone have done a great deal'fn this direction and more can be accomplish- ed by making the nearest village a center of activity where once or twice a week the people from all the region roundabout can gather for entertain- ment and pleasure oi one sort or an- other, with education incidental. If villages are not within easy distance, there is always a schoolhouse avail- able as a meeting place and such buildings may properly be utilized for this purpose. It is unquestionably true that the general discussion of this subject is helpful in leading to the inauguration of the requisite enterprises. Putting agriculture on a more scientific basis which leads to larger returns for the work Involved is caluculated to draw attention to 'the fact that money can be made in this way as easily and as much as in other pursuits. For, after all, the promise of reward is the greatest incentive. The social side is worthy of a great deal of considera- tion, for farmers, like other people, are gregarious, and find pleasure and profit in each other's society. The suggestion has often been made and it is a thoroughly good one, that most of the rural villages have one or two churches more than they need, and that by joining forces with the strongest and turning the property of the other over to some community uses, to serve as a clubroom and gath- ering place, it would go far toward ac- complishing a result to be so much desired. The folks on the farm are entitled to have some fun and it makes their lives easier and happier. While, of course, this is a matter to be set- tled in each community for itself, con- stantly talking about it is calculated to hasten the day.—Utica Press. At a meeting of the Women's Suf- frage Association, held Thursday af- ternoon, at the home of Mrs. J. Frank Doyle, it was voted to hold meetings once a month. A course of study will be taken up along civic lines and will be in charge of one or two members, who will give readings on the sub- jects chosen for the meeting. Mrs. G. Morgan Muren will have charge of the first meeting which will be held the second Monday of December at the home of Mrs. G. L. Arnold. This will be a public meeting and a large attendance is expected. Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Curtis spent the week-end with friends in Utica and Ilion. Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Reed are vis- iting friends and relatives in TJtica for a few days.

Only old company in our Nation NOT having increased its Safety and Speed. For years past officials of railroad companies have been telling us that the traveling public demanded great speed of trains and that the railroad companies had to comply with this demand, intimating that the latter would be glad to run their trains slow- er if their patrons would be satis- fied. Recently the new president of the New Haven roan, Mr. Elliott, or- dered slower schedules for passenger trains, and up to the present time no word of protest has been heard. There is a suspicion that the railroad officials ran very fast trains in order that their companies might do a big- ger business. With faster schedules more trains could be put on and more passengers could be carried within a given period of time. Passengers are pretty apt to accept without com- plaint whatever service the railroad companies are disposed to give so far as speed is concerned, as long as trains are not abnormally slow, and of late they have come out strongly in favor of safety first. At the convention of the National Association of Railway commission- ers the declaration was made, and not disputed by any of those who took part in the discussion, that slower train schedules would make traveling in this country 50 per cent safer. The commissioners are not controlled by the railroad companies and we may safely accept their conclusions as based on careful investigations made in the interest of the public. If railroad officials continue to or- der the running of passenger trains at dangerous speed, the commissions should, when they have the power regulate the schedules in accordance with safety. If a few passengers com plained, they would be more than off- set by several hundred times their number who would prefer to ride a little slower rather than risk their lives.—Albany Argus. \The Valet.' \The Valet,\ a college comedy is t o be put on by the Swastika Club at Virkler's hall, Friday evening, Novem- ber 28th. The club gave a minstrel show last season which proved to be a success, and this promises to be better, even, than the minstrels. Dan- cing will follow the program with ma- s'c furnished by Miss Flossie Virkler. Tickets are on sale both by members of the club and at Snyder's drug store. r CONSTABLEVILLE Mr. and Mrs. LaFayette Kidder of Turin have taken up their residence in this village, where they will con- duct a home bakery.

Dr. and Mrs. V. J. Snyder of Syra- cuse, spent th_ week-end with Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Hart. Dr. Snyder was a former resident of this village. Mrs. James McDermott, who has been seriously ill the past week, is much improved. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Nugent of Highmarket have taken possession of their recently purchased-home in this village. R. J. Schwenck and family of Turin have moved to the home of Mrs. An- drew Schwenck, in this village. Wesley Card and family of Welsh Hill now occupy the Heily farm in the eastern part of the village. The Constableville Concert Party, which proved a grand success here a few weeks ago, scored another suc- cess at Talcottville Friday evening last. The concert opened with an or- chestral selection by Messrs. Nelson Ha3 r es, Charles and Fay Merriam, whose playing was of a high class. Miss Margaret Traxel, who possesses a rich soprano voice, sang in an ex- tremely pleasing manner. Mis. Ring- rose and Miss Wynn, both contraltos at the M. B. church, responded to en- cores. The piano work was delight- fully rendered throughout, all of which deserves the highest praise. The vocal duet by Mrs. Roser and W. H. Norman was a marked success, showing to advantage the excellent voice of each. Too high praise can- not be given Mrs. Evans, impersona- tor and reader, while Messrs. Nor- man, Hayes and Klett did well with the German selections, and every- thing passed on with great success. Miss Florence Oaster has gone to Rome to attend the funeral of her uncle, George Oaster, who formerly resided near here, and was favorably known to the residents of this vicin- ity. I-Ie was a brother of James Oas- ter of this village. The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fellus G. Higby has been ser- iously ill the past week, but at this writing is improving.

Saturday evening, Egbert and How- ard Burr were aroused by the barking of their dog, and went out to investi- gate. The dog led them to an open lot a short distance from the house where they found a hive of bees be- longing to their near neighbor, Isaiah Cobb. One of the young men stood guard while the other notified Mr. Cobb. The parties who had carried the bees a d ; stance of 150 rods, in their haste to escape, dropped a rub- ber lap robe and a rein about 12 feet long. Mr. Cobb, to whom the parties are well known, says if they will call and pay him for his trouble they may have the robe and rein and nothing further will be said. A large number were present at the grange meeting and feast Satur- day evening and an interesting pro- gram was given.
